Cultural Arts Center

Call for Artist: “You Call That Art?” Exhibition Entries

Deadline: September 4, 2013
Open call to artists residing/working in central Ohio. In October, the Columbus Cultural Arts Center (our own armory building) will host a large exhibition of contemporary works by Ohio artists. “You Call That Art?” will pay homage to the seminal 1913 show but, more significantly, provide an in-depth look at the state of 21st Century Ohio. The call for art for this exhibition is in two parts: 1) A number of nationally-renowned Ohio artists have been asked to present works reflecting the significance of the 1913 show. These works will be the anchor(s) for the larger number of works anticipated from this open-call to central Ohio artists. 2) Artists submitting works for consideration by the jurors are asked to consider the importance of the 1913 Armory Show as they create works of contemporary significance, meaning, and materials. A brief (100 words) statement about how a piece might have been inspired by some aspect of the 1913 show can be included as part of an artist’s submittal. A detailed web-based history of the 1913 Armory Show is maintained by the University of Virginia at: http://xroads.virginia.edu/~museum/armory/entrance.html
The Principal juror for the exhibition is Michael Goodson, Director of Exhibitions, Columbus College of Art and Design.
